The Vicky Cristina Barcelona

Skyfall actor husband, as well as her parents and siblings, Monica and

Javier Bardem on Monday - the same day that the Duchess of Cambridge
welcomed a baby boy into the world

She explained: 'From the first
second, you feel so much love. It is a revolutionary experience. That's
the best way I can describe it.

'It transforms you completely, in a second,' the actress continued.

'Nature
is very wise and gives you nine months to prepare, but in that moment,
when you see that face, you are transformed forever.'On
the same day Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge announced
they'd welcomed a baby boy at St Mary's Hospital in London, weighing in
at 8Ibs, 6oz.

Ready to pop: Penelope was last seen on Saturday attending a concert in Madrid despite being heavily pregnant

But while the Royals are
expected to let the public know about their child, Cruz and Bardem are
notoriously private which may explain why they kept their newborn baby's
name under wraps for so long.She
recently said of her children: 'I want my son and my kids - if I have
more - to grow up in a way that is as anonymous as possible. The fact
that his father and I have chosen to do the work we do doesn't give
anybody the right to invade our privacy.'Penelope was last seen just a couple of days prior to her delivery when she looked ready to pop.

Adding to their brood: The pair already have a two-year-old son, Leonardo, who they are notoriously private about

Pregnancy curves: On Saturday Penelope showed off her huge bump ahead of the birth on Monday

The Saturday prior to Luna's
birth, she even attended a concert in Madrid despite looking heavily
pregnant and so close to her due date.Ahead
of the gig she was seen walking along with Javier as they headed for a
bite to eat while her huge bump hung over her jeans.The 39-year-old, who was thought to be
due to give birth back in June, then looked as if she was ready to welcome
her second child at any moment as her stomach swelled against her
T-shirt at the Los Veranos de la Villa Music Festival.
